Agreement of white-to-white measurements with swept-source OCT, Scheimpflug and color LED devices.

Purpose: To assess the interchangeability of different devices for measuring white-to-white (WTW) distance.

Methods: WTW distance was measured in 53 eyes of 53 patients using Anterion swept-source optical coherence topographer (SS-OCT), IOLMaster 700 SS-OCT, Pentacam HR Scheimpflug and Cassini color LED. Statistical analysis was done by means of the Friedman test and the post hoc Tukey test.

Posterior-chamber phakic implantable collamer lenses with a central port: a review.

We aimed to summarize the outcomes reported following the implantation of the V4c implantable collamer lens with a central port (ICL, STAAR Surgical Inc) for myopia correction. A literature search in PubMed, Web of Science and Scopus was carried out to identify publications reporting clinical outcomes of patients who were implanted with the V4c ICL model and had a follow-up period of at least 6 months. A total of 35 clinical studies published between 2012 and 2020 were included in the present review.

Alport Syndrome and Femtosecond Laser-assisted Cataract Surgery.

We report the surgical management of a patient with bilateral anterior lenticonus due to Alport syndrome using femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) and the Optiwave Refractive Analysis (ORA) system. A 38-year-old man with Alport syndrome presented to our department with visual loss due to anterior lenticonus in both eyes. Adjustments during bilateral FLACS were performed with the software's calipers to manually delineate the anterior capsulotomy.

Femtosecond laser-assisted capsulotomy for treatment of bilateral anterior capsule contraction.

A 51-year-old woman developed severe fibrosis and occlusion of the visual axis in 1 eye, maintaining a pinhole aperture in the fellow eye, 2 months after uneventful cataract surgery and implantation of a hydrophilic trifocal intraocular lens in the capsular bag. She had not exhibited any risk factor for anterior capsule contraction preoperatively. Femtosecond laser-assisted capsulotomy with a fluid-filled interface system was used to perform a simultaneous anterior capsulotomy in both eyes.

Effect of the Femtosecond Laser on an Intracorneal Inlay for Surgical Compensation of Presbyopia during Cataract Surgery: Scanning Electron Microscope Imaging.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of the femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) on porcine eyes implanted with a Kamra corneal inlay and to describe how the inlay may change the effect of the femtosecond laser on the lens.

Methods: FLACS was performed on six porcine eyes and a Kamra corneal inlay had been implanted, exploring the lens under the surgical microscope. Another Kamra corneal inlay was attached to the upper part of the transparent hemisphere used for calibration of the femtosecond laser.

Porcine Model to Evaluate Real-Time Intraocular Pressure During Femtosecond Laser Cataract Surgery.

Purpose: To investigate the changes in intraocular pressure (IOP) in porcine eyes during femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery using a liquid-optic interface system.

Materials And Methods: Femtosecond laser cataract surgery with the Catalys™ was performed on freshly enucleated porcine eyes in Oftalvist Moncloa, Madrid, Spain. Capsulorhexis and lens fragmentation were completed in all the eyes without complications.

Corneal erosion and Kindler syndrome.

Purpose: To describe a very common corneal pathology in a patient with Kindler syndrome.

Case Report: We report the case of a 21-year-old woman, who presented to the Ophthalmology Department as an emergency presentation because of ocular pain in the left eye that radiated to other areas of the face and neck. After an exhaustive clinical interview, it was determined that the patient had a rare disease (Kindler syndrome).

The influence of age on the refractive index of the human corneal stroma resected using a mechanical microkeratome.

Purpose: To measure the refractive index (RI) of the human corneal stroma in vivo using an objective Abbé refractometer (VCH-1) and to determine if RI of the stroma is related to age.

Methods: The VCH-1 was calibrated against a standard subjective Abbé refractometer using 7 randomly selected turbid semiliquid media. VCH-1 was used to measure RI at the central midstroma immediately after lifting the flap in neophyte patients preselected for laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis.

Factors influencing corneal biomechanical changes after microincision cataract surgery and standard coaxial phacoemulsification.

Purpose: To determine the factors affecting corneal biomechanics using biomechanical waveform analysis after microincision cataract surgery (MICS) and standard coaxial phacoemulsification with different incision sizes.

Setting: Vissum-Instituto Oftalmologico de Alicante, Alicante, Spain.

Methods: This prospective nonrandomized study comprised eyes with significant cataract that had MICS (sub-1.

Effect of suction ring application during LASIK on goblet cell density.

Purpose: To study the effect of LASIK surgery on conjunctival goblet cells as one of the proposed mechanisms for dry eye occurring after LASIK.

Methods: This prospective study included 22 eyes (11 patients) that underwent LASIK for the correction of myopia. Three pairs of samples were taken from the bulbar conjunctiva of each eye.

Human anterior lens capsule as a biologic substrate for the ex vivo expansion of limbal stem cells in ocular surface reconstruction.

Purpose: To study the potential use of human anterior lens capsule as a scaffold for stem cell transplantation in treatment of limbal cell deficiency.

Methods: Limbal biopsies and anterior lens capsules were obtained (same eye) from 30 patients during cataract surgery. Biopsies were suspended in Dulbecco modified Eagle medium under sterile conditions and stored at 4 degrees C.

LASIK in myopic patients with dermatological keloids.

Purpose: To evaluate the visual and refractive out come of LASIK in myopic patients with a known history of dermatological keloid scar.

Methods: This retrospective case series included 10 eyes of 5 white patients with a known history of dermatological keloids. All patients had low to moderate myopia with no corneal or limbal keloid.

Advances in microincision cataract surgery intraocular lenses.

Purpose Of Review: This paper reviews the recent developments in microincision cataract surgery intraocular lenses.

Recent Findings: Seven intraocular lenses are currently available for implantation through sub-2.0-mm incision.

Outcomes of microincision cataract surgery versus coaxial phacoemulsification.

Purpose: To compare outcomes of microincision cataract surgery (MICS) with coaxial phacoemulsification.

Design: Prospective randomized consecutive case series.

Participants: One hundred eyes of 50 patients with nuclear or corticonuclear cataract (grades 2+ to 4) with Lens Opacities Classification System III.

Settings: Instituto Oftalmologico de Alicante, Miguel Hernandez University, Alicante, Spain.

Methods: Forty patients were included in this prospective clinical comparative study.
